Nightforce sponsors MuleyFreak

[TheCougar]

I'm genuinely curious what "sponsored" means to everyone.

Nightforce picked Muley Freak as a brand ambassador. To me sponsorship means NF is giving free gear and/or paying MF to be a representative of the NF brand to followers and the hunting community to increase sales. NF is stamping their seal of approval on MF, saying MF represents what they value.

I'll buy into this by the fact that NF shared/reposted the photo.

Generically, and you might be a great example because your profession gets you discounts at certain URLs and direct, do you feel "sponsored" if you receive a discount?

I doubt anyone has seen a business agreement between NF/MF that results in a 1099 contract. I am reluctant to jump to "he's sponsored!" just because of a social media post. There's lots of folks who # and @ the heck out of their socials in hopes of associating well for their own gain. I can easily see a scenario where a social media coordinator or intern whose job it is to search their tags and repost, isn't on point with a who is blacklisted and who is an easy pass.

And the options for scopes gets even smaller.

Glass quality was meeeh for price anyway.

This is unbelievable. I will do my part. Any of you guys that want to get rid of their NF scopes can send them to me and I will destroy them for you. No charge. I will even pay for shipping. PM me for address.

I’ll agree with that or at least say that mtntough should share in the beatings.

I think all these companies share a responsibility to not support people that are detrimental to hunting

I'm not burning anything, but I won't continue to purchase.

I think that's how most people see it.

They also sponsor plenty of bad actors with similar past histories.

I haven't been on IG in a long time, but the NF IG page is pretty priceless at the moment.

Here's one of my favorites repeated a few times by NF: "we investigated the allegations and found that they were proven false by the courts, and the charges were dropped." Huh - criminal courts don't prove charges false, especially if the charges were "dropped". The best you can hope for is a not guilty verdict, which isn't the same as either innocent or "false". And a plea deal isn't the same as a NG verdict.

Well, my SHV will still withstand any devaluation, as it's gonna have some Form-applied nail polish from the drop tests. It will be worth more than brand new pricing.
